Instructions
- 1Carefully pick through the crab meat with clean hands or tweezers to remove any shell fragments, ensuring a smooth texture for the salad.
- 2Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, scoop out the flesh with a spoon, and dice into small, even cubes for a uniform mix with the crab.
- 3Slice the cucumber into thin rounds and the radishes into thin slices using a sharp knife or mandoline for consistent thickness and optimal crunch.
- 4Gently combine the crab meat and diced avocado in a medium bowl, folding with a spatula to avoid mashing the avocado while ensuring even distribution.
- 5Stir in the chopped chives and dill to the crab-avocado mixture, mixing gently to incorporate the fresh herbaceous flavors evenly.
- 6Drizzle the lemon juice and olive oil over the crab mixture, then season with salt and pepper, tossing lightly to coat without breaking up the ingredients.
- 7In a separate bowl, combine the sliced cucumber and radishes, then add crumbled feta and roughly chopped walnuts for texture and flavor contrast.
- 8Whisk together apple cider vinegar, extra virgin olive oil, chopped dill, salt, and pepper in a small bowl, then pour over the cucumber-radish mixture and toss to coat evenly.
- 9Sprinkle micro greens over the top of the crab salad for a pop of color and subtle peppery flavor as a finishing touch.
